Nell, The Park Forest Middle School students and I are reading your posts each day and they lead to great discussions. Thanks for sharing your experiences and your photos! I have a student teacher who is visiting from Norway. She goes to university at just about the same latitude north as you will be in the south at Palmer Station. Pretty interesting. I am sure you have had a little tension the past couple of days with flights and luggage, but you seem to be holding up well.
Bruce wants to know if you've seen whales from the boat. Is the sea rough or calm? Any other unusual wildlife (unusual to us here)?
Looking forward to reading and seeing more soon!
